    Although I havent read all the Discworld books yet, there are already many quotes “deep-seated” in my mind. Some only reflect funny lol moments, some are witty and true, others human and reflective, giving one food for thought.

    I wonder if anyone is interested to share their own favourite quotes here. I just start with a funny yet true one from The Fifth Elephant:

    “A marriage is always made up of two people who are prepared to swear that only the other one snores.”

    I like Pyramids use of imagination:

    “…in an infinite universe everything that can be imagined must exist somewhere.”

    ‘in an infinite universe everything that can be imagined must exist somewhere’

    It’s quite hard to find a quote that’s funny out of context. But some work.

    “In the beginning, there was nothing, which exploded.”

    or my signature :)

    Well, I have a lot favourites, for example this from Moving Pictures:

    “Inside every old person is a young person wondering what happened.”

    And I can certainly confirm its true :)
